One Person Company
OPC Registration

What is a One Person Company?

A One Person Company (OPC) is a company with only one member and one director (can be the same person). Introduced under the Companies Act, 2013, it gives solo entrepreneurs the benefits of a private limited company — limited liability, separate legal identity, and perpetual succession — without requiring a second person.

Key Benefits

• Full limited liability protection
• Separate legal entity from the owner
• Single director and shareholder allowed
• Nominee director required (takes over if owner is incapacitated)
• Can be converted to Private Limited Company when turnover exceeds ₹2 crore
• Eligible for Startup India DPIIT recognition
• Lower compliance burden compared to Pvt Ltd
• No requirement to hold AGM

Eligibility

• Only Indian citizens and residents can form an OPC
• Only one member allowed
• Nominee director must be appointed
• Cannot carry out Non-Banking Financial Investment activities
• Annual turnover must not exceed ₹2 crore (otherwise must convert to Pvt Ltd)
• Cannot be incorporated or converted into a Section 8 company
